There were days when my kids were little that I felt like the park saved my life!!
When we moved to California, Jordan was just 6 months old. We didn't know anyone, we only had one car (which Mike would take to work), and I was home with all day every day with just Jordan. Luckily we had a park just down the street. We walked there probably 4 days a week.
After Kya came along, I think we spent even more time at the park. I could take care of Kya and Jordan could run around and play. I can't even count the number of times I had to discretely nurse Kya at the park.
When Tyson was born, we slowed down on the whole park thing. I think that was because it was too tricky to watch both girls and take care of mister grumpy pants. After he got a little older though, it was all about playgroup at the park. I was usually the first one there and the last one to leave:)
Now that all the kids are in school, the trips to the park have dwindled. This last week of Winter Break we decided it was time to head out to the park and have some fun.
The park is still one of our favorite places!!
